3dpo and need some advice!!

Ladies I’m currently 3days post op. Had 300cc hp round overs.. i want to know how you was all feeling 3dpo? I feel like I’m in a lot of pain, not so much pain but feel really really right, uncomfortable and abit of pain. I can’t get up without the help of someone else, and once I do get up/stand up feel like my implants are gonna fall out?
My arms are really hurting too and my back. Was told my the nurse not to use my arms when getting up as it will end up putting pressure on the boobs which is why I can’t get up myself.. wondering how long I’m going to feel like this? Also feel like my implants are sitting right under my armpits, when will I start to see them drop?
Thanks ladies x

Hey lovely I’m nearly 3wpo now, I was very similar to you at your stage, think by about 5dpo I could get up myself but had to use my stomach muscles if that makes sense. The tightness started to ease off about 2 weeks but it was just uncomfortable. The feeling that they will fall out will also start to go just takes a bit of time and it depends on what your doing that feeling is worse when your using the muscles which seems to be when you do most things lol! Mine are as much in my armpits now. Hope you have a speedy recovery. Are you pleased with them so far? X

Totally totally normal. Took me till day 5/6 to be able ne be remotely normal and I could only actually lift the full kettle day 6. When I was told I could shower day 7 I was petrified as I felt so scared without any bra on or support. 8wpo now and it’s honestly like I’ve had these boobs forever. It will take a while for them to drop and feel like your own. I would say I started to feel more normal after around 2 weeks. But trust me all ur pain and fears are totally totally normal.

@Lindsey @grainne thank you for that ladies! I don’t know if I’m fully pleased with my results yet because they look way smaller than I had imagined and they’re so high up atm and sat pretty much under my armpits.. but I understand it takes time for them to drop etc so I’m trying to not think about it much.
I just feel so sore, tight, uncomfortable and feel like they’ll never look ‘normal’ 🙁
But hearing everyone else’s stories helps! Thanks ladies

Hey Molly I’m currently 33 days post op and had 275cc and 300 hp overs and was feeling the exact same way the first three to four days!! By day 5 and onwards, felt a lot better and pain started to stop other from the odd twinge/sharp pain or pain around my incisions. A full week to two weeks after, I felt normal again apart from obviously the numbness and nipple sensitivity which I still have. They will change loads molly!! I’ll attach a pic to show you. I was a flat 34A before and now wearing a 34D post op bra, so excited to see how much they’ll change over the next few weeks. Happy healing Molly!! xx

All totally normal, you’ll be fine before you know it especially that you’ve got overs which is much easier in recovery, it was 10 times worse for me because i had under the muscle with an uplift aaah don’t remind me, but it all passed and here i am now 26dpo and replying to your concerns and feeling way better, I remember the days i was asking here when will all this pass, and in a blink of an eye it did! Hang in there xx
